Dog Daycare

Daycare Features

Bigs – 4,000 square feet of adult dog play space which can be subdivided into 3 play areas:

Bigs 1 for the calm and laid back large dogs

Bigs 2 is the play area reserved for the more active crowd

Bigs 3 is where the rough and tumble kids hang out

Smallville – Puppies as young as 3 months have 1,000 square feet of play space

Tinyville – a separate area for small dogs without rambunctious puppies (or large adult dogs)

Teeny-Tinyville – an area reserved for our very small guests to keep them from being overwhelmed by the larger pups.

We encourage appropriate play, therefore, we separate dogs into appropriate playgroups: first by play type (gentle vs. physical) and if needed by size or age.

Dogs do best at daycare when they come on regular days during the week. Just like children, they make friends at daycare, and when they hang out with their regular group of friends each week (i.e., Monday, Wednesday, Friday), they are more relaxed, know the routine well, and have their own little “cliques.” We have a lot of “best friends” at daycare—some dogs play with the same few dogs for the entire day and are happy to see them on a regular basis because they all come on the same days each week!

If you are not sure if your dog would like daycare or if your dog is suited for daycare, please contact us. Lots of dogs behave differently when they are away from their parents; you’d be surprised.

Daycare Hours

Monday–Friday from 5:30 am–2:00 am (or when the last dog leaves) to cover your work day!

Reservations

Reservations are required in order to attend daycare.Failure to cancel reservations within 24 hours will result in a $10 no show fee.

The best way to ensure that we have space for your dog on a specific day or specific days of the week is to sign up for standing reservations. This will allow your dog to permanently be on the schedule for whichever day or days in a week that you would like. This way, there will always be room for your dog and you won’t need to remember to call ahead! However, please remember to call if your dog cannot make the scheduled reservations to avoid the $10 no show fee.

Enrollment Process

We accept healthy dogs of all ages

Puppies as young as 12 weeks! We just ask that they have their first series of shots and their bordatella vaccination.

If your dog is over 8 months of age, they must be spayed and neutered.

All dogs must be current on DHLPP, Rabies, and Bordatella vaccinations.

We consider your dog’s entire first day his “gradual enrollment day,” rather than do a quick 5-minute evaluation. This is when we determine:

If your dog is a good candidate for dog daycare, and if they have fun being there!

We observe their behavior with the pack and make sure that they not only are a good fit for daycare, but that they enjoy themselves!

We observe them not only when they first get there, but throughout the day, with different dogs, and at the end of the day when they might be tired.

If we notice any problems, we will contact you immediately and put your dog in one of our timeout bays.

Our program may not be right for every dog; Fun Fur Pets reserves the right to make this determination, but most dogs flourish in daycare. Owners must sign a rules and regulations form, client agreement, and be prepared for a very tired dog when they come back to pick them up!
